Firearm BS thread

Is that 25 a yardage count? Because if you only hit it 4 times out of 8 at 25 yards I'd call that horrible accuracy...

 

the 25 yard was just getting on the paper (actually there are 3 25 yards shots goin from the bottom left of the plate diagonally up towards the center) the 2 that are touching are at 100

 

accuracy of the shooter and accuracy of the firearm

now that is an appropriate hot political topic destined for this thread

 

Ah, ok. That's more like it, then.

 

Well without an accurate firearm you'll never really be an accurate shooter...

 

i keep getting the youtube add that says something about an interesting rifle is an accurate one, is your rifle interesting?? I like that line.

 

yeah I think my FIL got those for like $540 a piece and we found some hornady leverevolution in 325 gr for about $30 a box so its not horrible for what you are getting. they started making the LR in 250 gr which would be more ideal for deer I think

 

Accuracy is subjective, to an extent, though. My antique (1906-ish) Winchester '94 wanders all over the target when you're shooting paper with it, but when I was carrying it deer hunting it never missed and I never had a deer go more than 10 feet after I shot them because it was always either heart or lungs. I shot deer that were standing still and deer that were running, at distances varying from 20-75 yards, and on 5 different deer the points of impact could all be covered with the palm of your hand.

So it's not an accurate gun, but it's also a very accurate gun, lol.

 

been waiting a while for that one? Agree to disagree

 

I'll leave this here....for entertainment value only of course.

only thing worse than liberals bashing guns is conservatives assuming liberals hate guns

that is a silly video @Pchop and politics should be kept out from the firearm b.s. thread

lets talk more guns and less silly nonsense

 

this never gets old...

Any one shooting coated lead bullets in some subsonic 300blk? Got some on the way yo play with from Missouri bullet company in 215 and 245 grain. Ill try some work up with 4227 and 1680 any others try this?

 

He's clearly not worried about ricochets, standing that close.

 

pfff taking a little mellon on the chin never hurt anyone









lol but all kidding aside, that tin trash cap probably couldn't repel copper head bullets enough for ricochet precautions... I imagine at least

 

The tin can, no. Definitely not. But a rock on the ground underneath that melon?

KA-PWING!

 

I'm just saying, aren't you proud of me! I stayed out of that one

 

I

I think too many people are caught up in moa of hunting rifles when the kill zone of animals is far from a moa area.

 

I can see the obsession if you're taking 500 yard shots, or even 300 yard shots. But around here the only way to do that is if you're hunting a hayfield or a cornfield, and that's rare. I think that the longest shot I've taken on a deer has been like 175 yards.

 

saying moa just sounds cool.

its like saying external wastage to a wrx sti person

or crawl box to a tacoma head
